Good plugin, but be careful about PHP version

    Great and helpful plugin! Only after installing version 2.1.2, all pages, front end and back end, show a warning that a higher PHP version is required (my site runs on an older PHP version), so I could not even uninstall this plugin, had to delete it through FTP (and downgrade to an older version from backup).

    Too sad that you rated with one star without reaching out to support first 🙁 This has been fixed with the latest release anyway. Hope this helps you out.

    Cheers! 😉

    Hi, well having the whole site blocked was pretty frustraing! Thanks for improvement, but you should clearly state in the changelog that the plugin will just stop working if a version after 2.1.1 is installed with PHP < 5.6, so that people forced to use older versions of PHP can disregard future updates and still use the plugin, without recovering from backup.

    Sure 👍 Nevertheless everyone should dally with the idea of updating PHP as older versions no longer get security updates.

    I agree with that 🙂 just add it to the changelog, other than that I really appreciate your plugin.
